Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Romans 4:1-25

Chapter 4Now what shall we say concerning Abraham the father, as pertaining to the flesh, what did he find? For if Abraham were justified by his works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God ( Romans 4:1-2 ).If it was Abraham's works that brought him justification, then Abraham could boast in his works. He could say, "I left my home, I left my family on the other side of the Euphrates River, and I journeyed not even knowing where I was going, just waiting for God to show me. And I was... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Romans 4:1-25

Romans 4:1 . What shall we say then that Abraham, our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found? How was he a sinner, an idolater, justified? Was it by the flesh, as indicated by the word father? Was it by works in submitting to circumcision, on which ye jews lay the major emphasis? If so, he has the glory of boasting over the disobedient, but not before God, in whose eyes the brightest acts of human obedience are but defective duties. When God has promised, even believing can... read more

Romans 4:1-25What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found? Lessons from the case of AbrahamI. However much the most perfect of the species may have to glory of in the eye of his fellows, he has nothing to glory of before God. The apostle affirms this of Abraham, whose virtues had canonised him in the hearts of all his descendants, and who still stands forth as the embodiment of all the virtues of the older dispensation. But of his piety we have no... read more

Romans 4:23-25Now it was not written for his sake alone.The Scriptures used by every generationDo you ever think, as you pass along the chapters of the Bible, that they are now like the king’s highways; that more saints than tongue could count have walked along these pages toward heaven; that each verse has been a bosom like a mother’s to some child in Christ; that each verse has had in it blessings for multitude of souls; that these passages of hope and joy have made melody for thrice ten... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Romans 4:25

25 Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification. Ver. 25. Who was delivered, &c. ] Not that his death had no hand in our justifying, but because our justification, begun in his death, was perfected by his resurrection. Redemption we have by Christ’s abasement, application of it by his advancement. This one verse is an abridgment of the whole gospel, the sum of all the good news in the world, the grand inquest of all the ancient prophets,1 Peter 1:11; 1... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 4:1-25

Faith-justification shown by Abraham’s Case to lie at the Foundation of the Jewish, as well as of the Christian, Church , Romans 4:1-25 . Abraham himself was gratuitously justified by faith, (Romans 4:1-5;) with a justification whose blessedness is attested by David, (Romans 4:6-8;) and which was conferred upon him in his Gentilism, and afterward sealed by circumcision, (Romans 4:9-11;) rendering him the father of the faithful by faith, (Romans 4:12-17,) insomuch that from that faith sprang... read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 4:23-25

Abrahamic Faith is identical with Justifying Faith in Christ , Romans 4:23-25 . By a conclusive application of his argument St. Paul now asserts that Abraham’s faith and Christian faith are one. The Old Testament Church and the New Testament Church have the same foundation. Believers in Christ are the true sons of Abraham; the true Christian is the true Jew. read more

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 4:25

25. Raised… justification Christ atones for us on the cross; he justifies us on the throne. That he may purchase our pardon for us he must die; that he may secure the application of his blood to our case he must rise again. He must ever live to intercede for us by pointing to the merit of his death. He must ever live and reign, that he may apply the pardoning grace to the successive generations of the penitent as they appear in faith before him. read more
